The internet went into overdrive with the news that Disney’s Pixar is “eyeballing” an Ant-Man movie, nice idea but no doubt we’ll be hearing these stories on a regular basis now that Disney is looking to recoup some of the $2billion it payed for Marvel … Final issue of Planetary is getting closer. John Cassaday‘s colours are in and preview is up for Warren Ellis‘ (who also has Supergod from Avatar coming soon) much awaited finale … Terry Gilliam‘s “The Imaginarium of Doctor Parnassus,” featuring the final performance by the late Heath Ledger, will have its US premiere on Oct. 11 … X-Men and Invincible Iron Man writer Matt Faction tells the LA Times “How he made it” … and Ed Brubakerwants you dead apparently

Some killer pages from Warren Ellis‘ upcoming Supergods, the third title in his loose collection of superhero stories from Avatar. Ellis posted this description on his blog, pretty trippy stuff, and more of what we’ve come to expect from his free-flowing stream of superhero consciousness.

….there’s still that little scratchy voice in the middle of the night: I don’t want to be alone. I want there to be something bigger, something that moves in mysterious ways and wants only the best for us. And I will forgive it, the disgusting state of this world, and all the things in it that want to crush and kill me, and have faith that something incredible and invisible and unknowable will make things better. And so (in SUPERGOD), just to make sure, I will build it and keep it by me. I will pretend it’s a weapon, a defensive capability, a computing object or a construction machine – but really it is a Messiah.
